ISBN-13: 978-0-674-97612-2, ISBN: 0-674-97612-6

"For the last 2,500 years literature has been attacked, booed, and condemned, often for the wrong reasons and occasionally for very good ones. The Hatred of Literature examines the evolving idea of literature as seen through the eyes of its adversaries: philosophers, theologians, scientists, pedagogues, and even leaders of modern liberal democracies. From Plato to C. P. Snow to Nicolas Sarkozy, literature’s haters have questioned the val ..."

"Amazon Exclusive: A Q&A with Author Tierno Monénembo (Translated from the French by Nicholas Elliott) Question: What inspired you to write this book? Tierno Monénembo: My former headmaster, the great Guinean historian Djibril Tamsir Niane! He suggested I take an interest in Olivier de Sanderval during a conference in Niamey.

Sea of the Caliphs(Illustrated)
The Mediterranean in the Medieval Islamic World
von Christophe Picard, Nicholas Elliott, Qc Elliott Nicholas
Hardcover, 416 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2018 von Belknap Press: An Imprint Of Harvard University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-674-66046-5, ISBN: 0-674-66046-3

"“How could I allow my soldiers to sail on this disloyal and cruel sea?” These words, attributed to the most powerful caliph of medieval Islam, Umar Ibn al-Khattab (634–644), have led to a misunderstanding in the West about the importance of the Mediterranean to early Islam. This body of water, known in Late Antiquity as the Sea of the Romans, was critical to establishing the kingdom of the caliphs and for introducing the new religion to ..."






Flaubert(1st Edition)
von Michel Winock, Nicholas Elliott
Hardcover, 560 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2016 von Belknap Press: An Imprint Of Harvard University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-674-73795-2, ISBN: 0-674-73795-4

"Michel Winock's biography situates Gustave Flaubert's life and work in France's century of great democratic transition. Flaubert did not welcome the egalitarian society predicted by Tocqueville. Wary of the masses, he rejected the universal male suffrage hard won by the Revolution of 1848, and he was exasperated by the nascent socialism that promoted the collective to the detriment of the individual. But above all, he hated the bourgeoi ..."






The First European(Illustrated)
A History of Alexander in the Age of Empire
von Pierre Briant, Nicholas Elliott
Hardcover, 496 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2017 von Harvard University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-674-65966-7, ISBN: 0-674-65966-X

"The exploits of Alexander the Great were so remarkable that for centuries after his death the Macedonian ruler seemed a figure more of legend than of history. Thinkers of the European Enlightenment, searching for ancient models to understand contemporary affairs, were the first to critically interpret Alexander s achievements. As Pierre Briant shows, in the minds of eighteenth-century intellectuals and "philosophes," Alexander was the f ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-674-08863-4, ISBN: 0-674-08863-8

"From 1980 to 1988, Iran and Iraq fought the longest conventional war of the twentieth century. The tragedies included the slaughter of child soldiers, the use of chemical weapons, the striking of civilian shipping in the Gulf, and the destruction of cities. "The Iran-Iraq War "offers an unflinching look at a conflict seared into the region s collective memory but little understood in the West. Pierre Razoux shows why this war remains ce ..."

"India is a land of contradictions. It is the world's most densely populated country and the tiger's last remaining natural habitat, deeply traditional and intensely modern.
